Add Linear to your AI agent

Tool to update an existing Linear project. Use when you need to modify project properties like name, description, state, dates, or lead. All fields except project_id are optional - only provide the fields you want to update.

Tool to update an existing Linear project update post. Use this action when you need to modify a project update's content, health status, or diff visibility settings. All fields except the update ID are optional - only provide the fields you want to update. Changes are immediately visible to all team members viewing the project.

Updates an existing Linear team's settings and configuration. Use when you need to modify team properties like name, description, key, cycle settings, workflow states, or other team-level configurations. All fields except team_id are optional - only provide the fields you want to update.

Return the identity (name, email) of the connected Linear account.

Archives an existing Linear issue by its ID, removing it from active views while preserving its data for future reference. Use this action when you need to remove an issue from active work without permanently deleting it — for example, when an issue is no longer relevant, was created by mistake, or has been superseded by another issue. Archiving is reversible via the unarchive mutation, unlike permanent deletion. This action is irreversible through the API once completed, though issues can be manually unarchived in the Linear UI or via the issueUnarchive mutation.

Archives an existing Linear project by its UUID, removing it from active views. Use this action when you need to mark a completed or obsolete project as archived. Archiving is reversible (projects can be unarchived later), but confirm the project name with the user before executing, especially in bulk operations.

Archives a project update in Linear, hiding it from the default view while preserving its data. Use this action when you need to clean up old or obsolete project status updates without permanently deleting them. Archived updates can be unarchived later if needed. This action is irreversible only in the sense that the project update will be hidden from active views until explicitly unarchived.

Creates a new attachment and associates it with a specific, existing Linear issue.

Tool to add a reaction to an existing Linear comment. Use when you want to programmatically react to a comment on an issue.

Creates a new comment on a specified Linear issue. This action modifies shared workspace data and is not reversible — confirm the target issue and comment content before executing.

Creates a new issue in a specified Linear project and team, requiring team_id and title, and allowing optional properties like description, assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date. All UUID parameters (state_id, assignee_id, cycle_id, label_ids, project_id) must belong to the same team as team_id. The created issue's id is returned in data.id — capture it for use as parent_id in sub-issues or follow-up operations. No template_id field exists; expand templates manually into title and description before calling.

Create a relationship between two Linear issues using the issueRelationCreate mutation. Use this to establish connections like 'blocks', 'duplicate', or 'related' between issues.

Creates a new label in Linear for a specified team, used to categorize and organize issues. Label names must be unique within each team. If a label with the same name already exists, the existing label will be returned. Both new and existing labels return the same object structure; check the label's `createdAt` or compare IDs to determine if creation occurred.

Archives an existing Linear issue by its ID, which is Linear's standard way of deleting issues; the operation is idempotent. Archiving is permanent with no built-in undo — confirm the issue identifier and title with the user before executing, especially in bulk operations.

Downloads a Linear Attachment record or a private upload embedded in issue/comment Markdown; `file_name` must include the correct extension.

Retrieves a single Linear comment by its unique ID. Returns comprehensive details including the comment body, author, timestamps, associated issue, and thread information. Use this action when you need to fetch details about a specific comment, such as when displaying comment information, checking comment status, or retrieving comment content for processing. The comment ID can be obtained from issue queries, comment lists, or comment creation responses.

Retrieves all cycles for a specified Linear team ID; cycles are time-boxed work periods (like sprints). Results are team-scoped to the given team_id. To identify the active cycle, check that the current date (in UTC) falls between a cycle's startAt and endAt fields; either field may be null. Results may be paginated — follow page_info cursors to retrieve all cycles.

Fetches a Linear team's default issue estimate and state, useful for pre-filling new issue forms.

Retrieves an existing Linear issue's comprehensive details, including id, identifier, title, description, timestamps, state, team, creator, attachments, comments (with user info and timestamps, use issue.comments.nodes for comment IDs), subscribers, and due date. Embedded screenshots are uploads.linear.app URLs in description/comment Markdown, not Attachment records; download them with LINEAR_GET_ATTACHMENT's upload_url input. Does not include parent, milestone, cycle, or relation graphs—use LINEAR_RUN_QUERY_OR_MUTATION for those. Optional fields (labels, project, state, assignee, cycle) may be null; guard against null when accessing nested properties. Returns null or 'Entity not found' for invalid IDs, cross-workspace IDs, or restricted teams. Rate limit: ~60 req/min; HTTP 429 on excess—apply exponential backoff and respect Retry-After headers.

Retrieves a single Linear project by its unique identifier. Use when verifying a newly created or updated project, or when fetching detailed project information by ID.

Retrieves a specific project update by its unique identifier. Use when you need to fetch details about a specific project status update, including the update content, health status, timestamps, and associated project information. This action is useful when verifying a newly created project update or retrieving historical project update information.

Tool to list issue drafts. Use when you need to fetch draft issues for review or further editing. Check `pageInfo.hasNextPage` in the response to determine if additional drafts exist beyond the current page.

Tool to list all issues for a specific Linear team, scoped by team ID. Use when you need to retrieve issues belonging to a particular team without fetching workspace-wide issues. This is more efficient than workspace-wide listing followed by client-side filtering.

Retrieves all cycles (time-boxed sprint iterations) org-wide from the Linear account; no filters applied. In large multi-team workspaces this produces heavy responses — filter client-side by team ID and date range using each cycle's startsAt/endsAt fields. Cycles are team-scoped; always group by team ID to avoid mixing sprints across teams. To identify the active sprint, verify the current UTC timestamp falls between startsAt and endsAt, and handle null startsAt/endsAt defensively. Timestamps are UTC. Results may be paginated; follow pageInfo.endCursor and hasNextPage until hasNextPage is false to avoid truncated lists.

Lists non-archived Linear issues; if project_id is not specified, issues from all accessible projects are returned. Can filter by assignee_id. Only project_id and assignee_id server-side filters are supported; label, state, team, cycle, or date filters must be done client-side or via LINEAR_RUN_QUERY_OR_MUTATION. Response is a flat issues array plus page_info object (not GraphQL nodes/pageInfo). Fields like cycle membership, dueDate, completedAt, comments, and attachments are absent; use LINEAR_GET_LINEAR_ISSUE for enrichment. state and labels are nested objects (labels as labels.nodes array). Response order is not guaranteed; sort client-side after collecting all pages. No team_id filter; scope by project_id or use LINEAR_RUN_QUERY_OR_MUTATION.

Retrieves labels from Linear. If team_id is provided, returns labels for that specific team; if omitted, returns all labels across the workspace. Label names are not unique across teams — always use returned IDs, not names, and track each label ID with its team ID. In large workspaces, results may paginate; follow pageInfo.hasNextPage and pageInfo.endCursor to retrieve all labels.

Retrieves all projects from the Linear account. Returns a flat array (not a GraphQL connection) with fields id and name; use LINEAR_RUN_QUERY_OR_MUTATION for progress, state, issues, or team linkage. No server-side filtering: all workspace projects are returned regardless of team or name — filter client-side. Multiple projects can share identical names; always confirm project_id before downstream use. Results are permission-scoped to the connected user. Pagination: loop while page_info.hasNextPage is true, passing page_info.endCursor as after, or results will be silently truncated. HTTP 429 may occur in large workspaces; apply exponential backoff between calls.

Retrieves all workflow states for a specified team in Linear, representing the stages an issue progresses through in that team's workflow. Returned state IDs are team-scoped — never reuse a stateId across different teams, as this causes validation errors or 'Entity not found' failures in tools like LINEAR_UPDATE_ISSUE. State names (e.g., 'Done', 'In Progress') are non-unique across teams; always resolve names to IDs via this tool for the specific team_id before using them in filters or mutations. Uses cursor-based pagination via pageInfo.hasNextPage and endCursor; iterate until hasNextPage is false to avoid missing states in large workspaces. Always fetch fresh state IDs rather than hardcoding or reusing stale values.

Retrieves all teams with their members and projects. Use stable team IDs or keys (not display names) for subsequent operations — names are non-unique. Results reflect only teams visible to the authenticated token scope; missing teams or members indicate permission limits. Large workspaces paginate via pageInfo.hasNextPage/endCursor — incomplete pagination silently drops teams or members. Members may belong to multiple teams; deduplicate user IDs when aggregating. Use LINEAR_GET_ALL_LINEAR_TEAMS instead when only identifiers are needed.

Lists all workspace users (not team-scoped) with their IDs, names, emails, and active status. Display names are non-unique — use email to disambiguate before extracting an ID. Only assign users with `active: true`. Returned IDs are UUID strings; pass them as-is to fields like `assignee_id` — never substitute names, emails, or tokens. When joining with other tools, always join on IDs.

Marks a Linear comment as resolved. This action is used when a comment thread or discussion has been addressed and should be marked as complete. Use this action when you need to resolve a comment after addressing the feedback or discussion it represents. The comment remains visible but is marked as resolved with a timestamp and the resolving user's information.

Unarchive a previously archived project update in Linear. Use this action when you need to restore an archived project update to make it visible and active again. Archived project updates are hidden from normal views but can be restored using this action. Use when a project update was archived by mistake or needs to be brought back into active use.

Unresolves a previously resolved Linear comment, marking it as requiring attention again. Use this action when you need to reopen a comment thread that was previously marked as resolved. This is useful when additional discussion is needed or the resolution was premature.

Tool to update an existing Linear comment's body text. Use when you need to edit or modify the content of a previously created comment.

Validates the Linear API credentials by checking if the authentication token can successfully query the current user. Use this action when you need to verify that API credentials are valid before performing other operations, or to confirm that authentication is working correctly. This is particularly useful for connection testing, credential verification flows, or troubleshooting authentication issues.
